Ecclesiastes 6:6-10

⁶Yea, though he were to live a thousand years twice told, and had not seen any good— doth not every one go to one place?

⁷All the toil of a man is for his mouth; and yet is his desire never filled.

⁸For what hath the wise more than the fool? what hath the poor, that knoweth to walk properly before the living?

⁹Better is what one seeth with the eyes than the wandering of the desire. Also this is vanity and a torture of the spirit.

¹⁰That which hath been is already called by its name, and it is known that he is a man: and he is not able to contend with him that is mightier than he.
